Final answer:

RNAPol II requires 5 GTFs: TFIID, TFIIA, TFIIB, TFIIE, and TFIIH.

Step-by-step explanation:

The RNAPol II enzyme requires 5 general transcription factors (GTFs) to initiate transcription in eukaryotic cells. These GTFs include TFIID, TFIIA, TFIIB, TFIIE, and TFIIH. Each GTF plays a specific role in the assembly and function of the transcription initiation complex.
